How do you add a text overlay that follows an object in the video?

Dude, you are in a million years battle with other organisms trying to exploit and kill you, and you’re fucking winning. I would call that a blazing success. The other organisms are trying their literal best, their survival depends on it, and you just KEEP. ON. WINNING.

This doesn’t really make sense. What you say is only identifying if you already have this information about someone. If you already do have all this info about someone, what else do you need?

If you’re really worried about that, there’s no reason why you need to have your private details associated to your account. You can even have a “clean” main account for show and a “real” secondary account.

Your votes being public is only a problem if your account can be associated with you.

Except the ability to register an account without any personal details. Which makes it completely private if you want.

But this community is on Lemmy. No matter where you’re accessing it from, you’re using Lemmy in the end. You might use Lemmy with a piefed or mbin frontend.

You can deny it if you want, but anyone who can view this is a Lemmy user.

The argument for “you can’t consent to being born” does have a direct opposite argument: you also can’t not consent to birth. The birth is what gives the ability to consent or not in the first place. You could argue that by being anti-natalist you’re taking someone’s potential to give consent completely away, which is the same or more unethical, you’re essentially deciding for someone else that they should die/not exist without them getting a say in it?

You can do the same with suffering: life is happiness, everyone I know was happy sometime in their life (even if only as a child), so you’re doing serious harm by not allowing people to have happiness since only people who exist can be happy.

I think anti-natalism is a philosophy mainly held by very traumatized people and/or that live in very bad conditions.

We know (roughly) how to handle trauma, we know (roughly) what makes good conditions. We know roughly what makes people happy or what makes them suffer. We have the potential to create a world where being born is mostly positive for everyone.

In that sense, currently, I think mostly people that are well off should have children, ones that can actually support children properly. However, that is obviously not a permanent solution, since the end goal should be for everyone to be well off and to be able to support children.

But part of the suffering in the world is also caused by too many people. We can’t have infinite population growth while living in a world with finite resources. As such, we need to limit how many children people can have (which is already happening by availability of birth control and smarter people, able to make a choice if they want to have kids).

So in total, I don’t think birth/existence is either good or bad, but it has the potential to be both depending on how we handle it.

If you buy a device right now, you get an immediate benefit, that lasts at least for the lifetime of the device. There is no change yet, and you’ll always be able to just not update to newer versions of Android that restrict sideloading. In case of Fairphone, that device is likely to last a long time.

There is no real risk in buying a phone right now. Only once infrastructure changes that drops previous wireless network technology (i.e. 5g), and the new wireless communication technology is not supported by your phone’s hardware anymore, is when you’ll run into problems. Or when apps require a newer version of Android, but likely you’ll be able to spoof that by rooting your phone and installing certain software.

I mean I hate streaming services too and download my music, never used Spotify. I use rateyourmusic and listenbrainz if I want recommendations, or threads like this or other word of mouth.

What kind of “statements” does classical music make? For me instrumental music just sounds nice, or it doesn’t. No statement involved.

So music for you only means something if it’s political?

Like 30% of my music is instrumental, many others who have voices but no distinguishable words, and some of those are my most favorite music ever. I almost never listen to the words in music.

My dude, no one listens to radio anymore, when you can have your own music with you on a device you carry around in your pocket all the time.

I’m a 90s kid and I never got into music like this. I always had single songs I liked, including from RatM, Nirvana etc but I never really cared about more than 1 or 2 songs of any individual artist, or albums. I just didn’t like the other songs.

I assume the reason why you have these “recognizable” names was solely because music was sold in albums. People couldn’t reaaaally get music conveniently any other way. And only the biggest ones could afford to produce albums in the first place. So even if you liked 1 or 2 songs only, you were “forced” to buy the whole album and since you got it already, why not listen to the rest. And since you didn’t have infinite money to buy infinite albums you listened to the same ones again and again.

I never really did that. I bought an album and actually only listened to one song or I bought compilations. I never cared about a particular artist, only about songs. The current music acquisition process is perfect for me, I find plenty of amazing songs everywhere. Do I know the artist of my songs? Not really, and I don’t care. When I meet someone, we listen to each other’s music together. I vibe with and pick single new songs from them. We don’t bond over artists, we bond over music. I think everything is perfect that way.

Edit: just one German example of a popular song that many people here know that criticizes shit here in the country: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Y-B0lXnierw

Yeah, mine too, it’s not the fastest and most cutting-edge one, though, maybe that’s what they mean.

Not really realistic at all. There’s a market for unlocked devices, and where there’s money, there’ll be a way.

Weigh 10 hazelnuts, weigh all hazelnuts, do basic math.

Nucleus Coop (for Windows only unfortunately) makes lots of games that ordinarily don’t have offline splitscreen to work in that way.

You can play a lot of games splitscreen coop with nucleus including DRG, Windows only unfortunately.
